專家說明

John Falter's Shirt-Sleeve Court depicts a young Abraham Lincoln settling a dispute in the cornfields of the American Midwest and illustrates the line, "Lincoln remarked it was a kind of shirt-sleeve court they were holding there in the cornfield," from Carl Sandburg’s Abraham Lincoln: The Prairie Years (1926), which was re-published by Reader's Digest.
